An exchange voices our sentiments
after this fashion: "Please hand in
your local items when fresh. We do
not like to publish a birth after the
baby is weaned, and marriage after
the honey moon is over, or the death
of man after his widow is married
again."

Grand Army as an organization, and
that he wonld not join it under any

with his opinion, but he should not Use
such language as 1t does not speak well

The wicked newspapers are telling a
story about a minister who struck
Sault Ste. Marie during the hight of
the boom in real estate, armed with
the credentials to collect money to
build church. The faithful subscribed
about s.. 900, which was put into his
hands. But the prospective minister
had been exposed" to the speculative
fever, which Is as ''catshing" as small
pox, and he invested the church funds
in options on corner lots. He specula-
ated wisely, and the $4,000 increased
to $40, 900 in few deals. Sault Ste.
Marie will have fine church.

And thus / make my profit"
